MP4 to GIF Converter (Trim, Presets, No Watermark)

Upload any MP4, trim the segment you need, and convert to a GIF without uploading to a server. Plotlake processes locally, keeping your footage private while offering FPS and width controls.

Presets guide you: High Quality for detail, Social for balance, Tutorial for crisp UI text, Small File for lightweight sharing. Adjust palette/dithering to minimize banding.

For stability, keep clips under ~60 seconds or ~300 frames. After the first FFmpeg load (~30MB cached), conversions speed up.
